Replacement MTN (Thumbnailer) for H264 content (2 Viewers)

[azzuro]

all work fine for me !!!!
Many screen, with and without black detection / times by movie : 4-5 seconds
but system for test is storage 7200tr / SSD & TEMP on ramdisk

maybe difference (no problem for me) :
the border is added to the next, if set 15 = 30 between 2 tiles. / solution = set 7 for have 14 and extrem border has only 7

bug ?!?
Thumbnail width: (Same as source video width) : When Movie is FullHd, no problem, bur when is SD is very small ( you can view all screen compared to Madagascar)
, the width final can summing all of the widths of thumbnails,
example 3 column 2 rowq movie 720x576
width = 720 *3 = 2160px

Thx for your work !
PS : I am sick with a fever!

Edit : Files are no setting quality specified in REG

Hi there,

Thanks for all the testing

So the only issue for you is that the inner borders are twice the width as the edge border?

Thanks,

J.

Well, they would be if there was a border on each image!

True... but I'm sure I can code around it

i think is better less border, on edge.

issue is thumnail width very small tiles, when is SD

Hey nice job Jay_UK with the black frame detection, definitely a viable replacement for mtn.exe for mp1.3 or mp1.4

Hi there,

Chances are with all the bugs it will be Mepo 1.9

I am wary I do not make this into a generic thumbnailer. The priority is to make a working replacement to MTN.exe and get the code into MePo.

Who knows after that I might develop MTN_Replacement further (doubt I will - the EXE has been useful for rapidaly producing/testing the underlying code).

Now I'm into C# I'm hoping to start looking into the MePo code a little more

what i mean is this can all be transfered into MP and it will use ffmpeg to replace mtn.exe

Hi Jay

!00% success on my varied video formats, nice work mate, even aspect ratio looks good using 1x2 settings

Hi guys,

Sorry....have been busy so not much progression.

A new version on the first post - V72.

Now has customisable borders:

Create a new registry key called "externalborder" and set it to the number of pixels
Create a new registry key called "internalborder" and set it to the number of pixels

Before anyone jumps on me or shouts... I know the AR might be slightly off when tiling. This is due to rounding of the decimal places in some parts of the code.

Please give it a try and let me know.

J.
